Chapter 168 Treasure House
Ye Bai frowned, "Nine palace astrology chart?"
Bai Zhixi slowly explained: "I have only heard from my father that the Nine Palaces Astrology Chart is the inheritance formation of the Bai family. It consists of two parts. One is the Nine Palaces Chart and the other is the Astrology Chart. To decipher the Nine Palaces Chart, you must refer to it.
Astrology chart."
"In this way, the white pattern on our heads is a star chart, but what information can it contain?"
Ye Bai raised his head to observe the Baize pattern. Except for the sapphires with different light and dark colors, nothing else could be seen.
"My father said that there are seven rays and the movement patterns of the stars in the astrology chart. Then the Eight Diagrams and the twenty-four solar terms of time, space, and numbers are matched to form the basic pattern and structure. By deducing the nine-gong numerology, the nine-gong astrology chart can be deciphered.
."
Ye Bai understood a little more, but he also had doubts: "According to what you said, there should be nine astrological charts, but there seems to be only one here."
Bai Zhixi was also a little confused. Although the Nine Palaces Astrology Chart belonged to the Bai family, she had never come into contact with it. Her knowledge of the Nine Palaces Astrology Chart just now was gleaned from her memory.
Seeing Bai Zhixi close his eyes and remember again, Ye Bai looked for clues alone.
Just looking at the Baize pattern for a long time, Ye Bai felt that his eyes were sore from the light. After rubbing it for a while, he looked at the pattern again and felt that the Baize pattern was slightly different from the previous one.
Bai Ze's limbs have darkened and are hidden in the clouds, and the style of the entire pattern has also become different.
This astrological chart is indeed changing.
Ye Bai also thought that the sapphire stone must rely on the reflection of a light source to shine, which means that the star map on the head is connected to the outside world and relies on sunlight to shine.
However, the sunlight from the outside is not static. The position of the sun is different, and the light that can be refracted on the star chart must also be different, so the white pattern will keep changing.
As long as you record the nine white patterns in one day, you can get nine astrological charts.
Ye Bai quickly told Bai Zhixi this discovery. Bai Zhixi was delighted and quickly started to calculate the first astrological chart.
Ye Bai also took out a pen and paper from the space and made a draft for Bai Zhixi. He also took out a Polaroid. If he encountered a star chart that he had no time to record, he would take it with a Polaroid.
However, there are only four polaroids left, so we need to use them sparingly.
Perhaps the ancestors of the Bai family did not expect that future generations would be able to preserve the stars in this way.
With the mutual cooperation of the two, after one day and one night, nine astrological charts were completely drawn.
Ye Bai couldn't get involved in what happened next, and Bai Zhixi was the only one who reviewed the calculations with pen and paper on the Jiugong Stone Platform.
There are nine round holes on the Jiugong stone platform, and each round hole has eight directions, so there are eight nine ways of arrangement.
Ye Bai knocked on the surrounding stone walls. Some places were hollow. He thought there were mechanisms hidden behind them. If the Nine Palaces stone platform was arranged incorrectly, these mechanisms would probably be triggered.
Even though Bai Zhixi's Bai Ze bloodline was activated and her mental arithmetic ability was greatly improved, it is not easy for her to deduce these nine star charts.
Jiugong comes from Luo Shu and is mostly used for horoscope arrangements.
It needs to be supplemented by six instruments, three oddities, eight gates and nine stars for arrangement.
The difficulty of the deduction surprised her.
However, she also learned a lot from the nine-house astrology chart. The nine astrology charts and the stone plate mechanism are not like tests, but like inheritance.
Maybe this is the place to choose the heir to the Bai family.
A few hours later, the deduction of the astrology chart was completed, and the thick stack of drafts was sorted out, and Bai Zhixi was free.
When he turned around, he saw that the secret room was empty. Ye Bai had gone somewhere.
Some bread and fruits were placed aside, as well as a small note left by Ye Bai.
"Go outside to find some game and wait until I come back."
Bai Zhixi smiled, put the note in his pocket, and came to the Jiugong Stone Platform.
"What exactly did the Bai family leave behind the stone platform? Is it the Bai family's treasure house that daddy said?"
Perhaps because of the birth of her daughter, Bai Renli left too little information, and the origin of the Bai family shrouded Bai Zhixi like a mist.
But this fog will soon be blown away.
According to the deduction results of the Nine Palaces astrology, Bai Zhixi adjusted the directions of the nine round holes in sequence.
"Boom!" A low machine sound came from below, and the stone platform shrank, revealing a secret passage extending downward.
It looks like it’s done!
At this time, Ye Bai also came in from the outside, holding a burnt-smelling rabbit in his hand.
"Why don't you try it before I come in? What if something goes wrong?"
"Hey, you have to be more confident in your wife." Bai Zhixi acted coquettishly, stepped forward to hug Ye Bai, and said confidently: "And how can such a small mechanism make it difficult for a talented girl like me to stay?"
p>
Ye Bai stuffed a mouthful of rabbit meat into her mouth, but Bai Zhixi spit it out quickly: "Bah, it's not cooked inside!"
"I thought you, a genius girl, could tell when meat is done."
Ye Bai and Bai Zhixi fooled around for a while, then took her down the secret passage.
The secret passage was paved with bluestone steps. After not walking far, the two came to a brightly lit room.
Twenty-four ever-burning lamps are hung around the room, and rows of bronze hollow bookshelves are placed in the middle. There is a stone platform behind the bookshelves.
However, this secret room does not contain the gold and silver treasures that Ye Bai expected to be so rich as to rival the country.
There are many iron boxes on the bookshelf, and many books are stored in them.
Could it be that these books are the treasures that Bai Renli refers to as being extremely rich?
"This lamp oil smells so good. Why do I seem to have smelled it somewhere before?" At this time, Bai Zhixi sniffed it slightly and wrinkled her nose.
"Of course you have smelled it. Do you remember the corpse oil I extracted from the corpse of the corpse demon? They all have the same smell." Ye Bai smiled. The ever-burning lamps in the secret room should all be fueled by the shark corpse oil.
A drop of shark corpse oil can burn for a thousand years and is worth tens of thousands of gold.
Ye Bai only extracted a dozen drops from the corpse demons he brought back, but Bai Zhixi didn't like this kind of corpse oil, so Ye Bai later sent it to the Crescent Hotel for auction.
Just ten drops of shark corpse oil were auctioned for more than one million U.S. dollars, which surprised Ye Bai. When will he make another underwater tomb and kill all the corpse demons en masse!
After all, they are all wandering gold.
Bai Zhixi walked to a bronze bookshelf. The beautifully carved patterns on the bookshelf were the images of some Baize totems.
The year seems to be from the Han Dynasty.
Opening an iron box, there was a book inside. The book was made of special materials and had "Lianshan" written on the cover.
Bai Zhixi was shocked and quickly read the contents inside.
"The hexagrams in its scriptures are all eight, and the divisions are all sixty and four..."
It is indeed about the content of the Yi Jing Bagua, and it does not seem to be fake.
Bai Zhixi opened another iron box, which contained "Gui Zang". However, the book was incomplete and contained the words written by the ancestors of the Bai family.
"It is a national pity that it is lost in the collection. Future generations must collect it completely!"
Lianshan, Guizang, and Zhouyi are collectively called the "Three Changes". They are all books that use the form of "gua" to explain the cyclical changes of everything in the universe.
It's just that Lianshan and Guizang were lost when Qin Shihuang burned books, and no one has ever seen them. Unexpectedly, there is still a set stored in the Bai family's library.
The ancestors of the Bai family were indeed foresighted.
If these two books were thrown out, I don’t know how much repercussions they would cause.
Ye Bai also found a book on another bookshelf, which was Hua Tuo's "Qing Sang Jing".
Hua Tuo recorded all of his life's medical knowledge in the "Qing Nang Sutra". Unfortunately, because Hua Tuo was killed later, and the jailer he entrusted to keep it was not good, the "Qing Nang Sutra" was burned.
Only some chapters have been circulated, but they are still very useful.
There is actually an entire volume stored here.
Chapter completed!
